Symptoms Ataxia, Somnolence, Muscular weakness, Dyspnoea, Skin, eye and
mucous membrane irritation
4.3 Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
Treatment Treat symptomatically. In case of ingestion gastric lavage should be
considered in cases of significant ingestions only within the first 2
hours. However, the application of activated charcoal and sodium
sulphate is always advisable. There is no specific antidote.
Fire-fighting measures
5.1 Extinguishing media
Suitable Use water spray, alcohol-resistant foam, dry chemical or carbon
dioxide.
Unsuitable High volume water jet
5.2 Special hazards arising
from the substance or
mixture
Dangerous gases are evolved in the event of a fire.
5.3 Advice for firefighters
Special protective
equipment for firefighters
In the event of fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus. In the
event of fire and/or explosion do not breathe fumes.
Further information Do not allow run-off from fire fighting to enter drains or water courses.
Accidental release measures
6.1 Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Precautions Use personal protective equipment. Keep people away from and

Site documentation to support safe handling arrangements including the selection of engineering, administrative and personal protective equipment controls in accordance with risk-based management systems is available at each manufacturing site.
7.1 Precautions for safe handling
Advice on safe handling Use only in area provided with appropriate exhaust ventilation.
Advice on protection
against fire and explosion
Keep away from heat and sources of ignition. Take measures to prevent
the build up of electrostatic charge.

Exposure controls / personal protection
This substance is handled under Strictly Controlled Conditions in accordance with REACH regulation Article 17(3) for on-site isolated intermediates and, in case the substance is transported to other sites for further processing, the substance should be handled at these sites under the Strictly Controlled Conditions as specified in REACH regulation Article 18(4). Site documentation to support safe handling arrangements including the selection of engineering, administrative and personal protective equipment controls in accordance with risk-based management systems is available at each manufacturing site.
8.2 Exposure controls
Respiratory protection Wear respirator with an organic vapours and gas filter mask
(protection factor 10) conforming to EN140 type A or equivalent.
Respiratory protection should only be used to control residual risk of
short duration activities, when all reasonably practicable steps have
been taken to reduce exposure at source e.g. containment and/or
local extract ventilation. Always follow respirator manufacturer's
instructions regarding wearing and maintenance.
Hand protection Wear CE Marked (or equivalent) nitrile rubber gloves (minimum
thickness of 0,4 mm). Wash when contaminated and dispose of
when contaminated inside, when perforated or when contamination
on the outside cannot be removed. Wash hands frequently and
always before eating, drinking, smoking or using the toilet.
Eye protection Wear goggles (conforming to EN166, Field of Use = 5 or equivalent).
Skin and body protection Wear standard coveralls and Category 3 Type 6 suit.
If there is a risk of significant exposure, consider a higher protective type suit.
Wear two layers of clothing wherever possible. Polyester/cotton or
cotton overalls should be worn under chemical protection suit and
should be professionally laundered frequently.
